Naomi Judd, beloved country music singer, songwriter, The New York Times best-selling author, nurse, actress and activist, was best known as founding member of the iconic duo The Judds alongside her daughter, Wynonna, as well as mother of award-winning actress and global philanthropist Ashley Judd. A cherished member of the Country Music Hall of Fame, Naomi was honored internationally for her benevolence to others as well as for the deep concern she held for her neighbors and friends. Believing that music was a healer, Naomi opened this Fund in 2017 to help others in their most trying times. As Naomi penned in “Love Can Build a Bridge,” The Judds’ most famous song: “When we stand together, it’s our finest hour.”
